Woods Furniture Pty Ltd

Based in Melbourne, Woods Educational Furniture is a proud Australian company, manufacturing student chairs, stools, lockers and desks for Australian schools since 1953.

"After five years of looking at ERP/CRM solutions that either required us to do things their way, were too expensive, had high annual maintenance costs or supplied by companies we were unsure of for a long term relationship - it was a relief to discover OpenERP and the team at WillowIT. We are now confident of getting a perfectly tailored fit that will continue to grow with us and at a price we are comfortable with - and with no exorbitant annual maintenance fees.

OpenERP is now implemented and WillowIT and the OpenERP solutions have meet and in some cases exceeded our expectations. Because of the custom design we have a 100% fit to our requirement and consequently the solution has been well accepted by the competing needs of the various departments. I do not think this would have been possible with an off the shelf package.

Our productivity gains are obvious and information is now available and more easily accessed by all areas of the company without compromise to security.

Implementing a new ERP system is an inherently tortuous endeavor not to be undertaken lightly and it is important to select the right partner that understands your needs and ensures they are meet with minimal pain and disruption to business. Our experience with the team at WillowIT has been excellent and is encouraging us to exploit other exciting areas of the OPenERP package.

Looking forward to working with them on future system enhancements.”
